Being Friday, and thus date night, we went to Ding How for supper. It’s a Chinese joint in Ridgeland, a nearby suburb, and the family that own it are delightful. We always get updated on her kids, and hear about the rising food costs, and she asks how we are doing, and she thanks us effusively for being suck loyal customers. We probably eat there once a month or so.
Dinner was somber – we learned this morning that Renee’s sister Lori had died. We knew it was coming, but still – you can know a thing is coming, and yet not be ready for it.
